Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

bpf: Fix panic due to wrong pageattr of im->image

In the scenario where livepatch and kretfunc coexist, the pageattr of im->image is rox after arch_prepare_bpf_trampoline in bpf_trampoline_update, and then modify_fentry or register_fentry returns -EAGAIN from bpf_tramp_ftrace_ops_func, the BPF_TRAMP_F_ORIG_STACK flag will be configured, and arch_prepare_bpf_trampoline will be re-executed.

At this time, because the pageattr of im->image is rox, arch_prepare_bpf_trampoline will read and write im->image, which causes a fault. as follows:

insmod livepatch-sample.ko # samples/livepatch/livepatch-sample.c bpftrace -e 'kretfunc:cmdline_proc_show {}'

With this patch, when modify_fentry or register_fentry returns -EAGAIN from bpf_tramp_ftrace_ops_func, the pageattr of im->image will be reset to nx+rw.
